Verdicts with legal force

Legal force equal to court judgments

Many people fear that arbitration is just a loose talk without real consequences. This is a mistake. According to the Polish Code of Civil Procedure, specifically articles 1212 to 1215, a verdict issued by Lublin Union Arbitrage has the same weight as a state court ruling. After obtaining an enforcement clause in a common court, the document goes straight to the bailiff. In 2023, we helped close 34 such cases, where the debtor avoided payment despite clear evidence. Discretion is our standard, so no outsider will find out about your financial problems.

The process of granting a clause usually takes from 14 to 32 business days. This is much faster than waiting two years for a final judgment in standard mode in a district court. The District Court in Lublin at Krakowskie Przedmieście street only checks whether the verdict does not violate fundamental principles of the legal order. It does not re-examine the case, which saves your time. Clear rules of the game mean that the document you receive from us is a ready-made tool to recover money.

  • The verdict ends the case definitively – there are no multi-year appeals blocking your cash.
  • A bailiff can seize the debtor's bank account based on our ruling.
  • Court is a last resort, which is why we provide a solution that bypasses queues in common courts.

We also operate outside the country's borders. Thanks to the New York Convention of 1958, LUA verdicts are recognized in 172 states of the world. If your contractor from the Czech Republic or Germany is in arrears with payment for goods, our document will allow you to pursue claims directly with them. In February 2024, we successfully supported a transport company from Lublin in recovering 18,200 EUR from a partner near Berlin. We solve the problem, we don't look for the guilty, focusing on facts and numbers.

The average time from filing an application to issuing a verdict in our office is currently 47 days. This is a specific date that allows you to plan the company's budget without uncertainty. We do not promise miracles, but we give a document with a specific legal force. If you need to check how to formulate an arbitration clause in your contract, you can pick up a sample clause in our office at Krakowskie Przedmieście 22 during one visit.
